need of new system

I had allergies that would not clear up in May. Coughed until July and found out that I had broncitius. Not a big deal in itself, however since it was so bad they took a chest xray and found that I have had too many assults to my lungs. I have developed calcuim deposits in my left lung.

Allergies are funny. One year I might have a runny nose then the next I get hives or something bigger like chronic broncitius. This year I have developed an asthma like scare. It feels like I am choking and need to dry cough. I called the American Lung Assoc. they confirmed that in later years those with not so good allergies can develope asthma like symptoms. I seem to exasperate my system with cleaning chemicals. That sounds not so bad until you realize that chemicals are everywhere. We went to look at a new truck. The NEW Truck smell made me not breath so easy. Washing clothes the soap bothered me. urghhh.

All and all I have a appointment with the pulmonary specialist to see how damaged my lungs are and to try to get a handle on this new development. Hopefully they will give me a magic shot and make it all go away. smile....

Lookin forward to the new system when aliments are not a worry.

Wow, so sorry you're experiencing such problem w/ your health! This must be so frustrating since you're an active person. Doctors can do so much for us now so hopefully your issue will be easily treatable or at the least, manageable.
Keep us posted & c'mon new system!
